LAS VEGAS - Busy ticket agents and brisk sales highlighted
the first day of ticket sales for the March 4, 2001, NASCAR Winston Cup
event at Las Vegas Motor Speedway.

Thousands of telephone calls and ticket orders were taken
between 7 a.m. and 5 p.m. (Pacific Time).

"Most all of the race fans who bought tickets today are
new ticket holders to Las Vegas Motor Speedway," said Chris Powell,
LVMS' executive vice president and general manager. "Unlike previous
years, our renewal notices for this past year's fans already have been
processed. It was the remaining tickets that went on sale Monday, and
our ticket office was quite busy. The race is not a sellout. We still
have good seats available. But if we continue this current pace of
selling tickets, the remaining tickets will go fast."

The NASCAR Winston Cup event, which will be the fourth held
at LVMS, will be preceded on Saturday, March 3, by the Sam's Town 300
NASCAR Busch Series event. The Orleans Pole Day for the NASCAR Winston
Cup event will be Friday, March 2. The Pennzoil World of Outlaws will
run a three-day event from March 1-3 on the half-mile dirt track located
adjacent to the superspeedway.

Fans can order tickets by calling the speedway ticket office
at 1-800-644-4444 or logging on to Tickets.com.
